CDU Reapers, Tuesday Group triumph
CEBU, Philippines - The CDU Reapers rebounded from a season-opening defeat and vented their ire on the Visayan Ballers, 52-40, in the fifth season of the 5th Lucky Tableware Regulars Basketball Tournament billed as “Alberto’s Pizza” Cup at the Visayan Glass gym in Brgy. Guadalupe, this city.
The two protagonists fought on level playing field for most of the way resulting into a 38-all deadlock at the end of the third period, but the CDU Reapers suddenly caught fire and staged a searing 14-2 rally in the windup to baffle the Visayas Ballers at the final buzzer.
In the other game, the Tuesday Group handed Team Explorer its second straight defeat via a 71-61 decision.
The Tuesday Group was in full command from the onset and was never threatened after taking an early 14-10 lead. They closed the first half with a 27-20 edge and then launched another sizzling wave of attack to further blow the game apart, 52-35.
